Herman 11,136 Posted November 21, 2015 TEAM: Ruddy; Wisdom, Bennett, Bassong, Olsson; Howson, Mulumbu, O''Neil (c), Brady; Redmond; Mbokani. #ncfcSUBS: Rudd (GK), Whittaker, Jerome, Hoolahan, Dorrans, Lafferty, Odjidja. #ncfc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrs miggins 0 Posted November 21, 2015 Wisdom at RB. I hear Martin is out for personal reasons (so hope he''s ok).A bit anxious about Wisdom playing; he''s done pretty well in some matches but his first game was awful. Him against hazard will be interesting - hopefully Howson can give him cover like the last match against Monero (where they both kept him very quiet).

AJ 1,358 Posted November 21, 2015 Interesting, no Russ at all - a surprise omission must surely mean an injury or illness.Wisdom gets a chance to continue impressing at right back. We''ve definitely gone 4-5-1 which I assume will morph into 4-3-3 in attack with Brady and Redmond on the flanks. Nice to see O''Neil starting again too, played very well in our last game. Laff''s on the bench too, maybe he''s got a goal in him today?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,358 Posted November 21, 2015 Interesting, Watford have just equalised against Man Utd with a late penalty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 11,136 Posted November 21, 2015 Oh Deeney[:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuzzar 1,861 Posted November 21, 2015 Happy with that line up. Defensively solid (hopefully!), with good attacking intent as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,358 Posted November 21, 2015 And now Deeney has helped the ball over the line... into the Watford goal. Cracking end to the game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrs miggins 0 Posted November 21, 2015 Surprised Dorrans isn''t in for O''Neil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,358 Posted November 21, 2015 Why? O''Neil was outstanding against Swansea, thoroughly deserves to start in my eyes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairy Canary 753 Posted November 21, 2015 Any news on Tetty? Guess must be an injury as not in the squad. Can''t see us playing with no holding midfielders Mrs! Especially as it went so well with two against Swansea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YorkshirePudding 0 Posted November 21, 2015 Redmond will be playing behind Mbokani Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrs miggins 0 Posted November 21, 2015 Tetts picked up a knock HC.The reason why I''m surprised O''Neil isn''t starting is because both Mulumbu and Dorrans played together and both sit deep. O''Neil had a decent game against the Swans and will boo doubt be decent again today as he''s very experienced and always does the job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrs miggins 0 Posted November 21, 2015 *both can sit deep (in relation to Mulumbu and Dorrans) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,358 Posted November 21, 2015 O''Neil and Mulumbu will hold the midfield with Howson just in front I''d imagine, Brady LW and Redmond RW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,358 Posted November 21, 2015 Looks like I''m slightly wrong - brady LW, Howson RW and Redmond is in the hole Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YorkshirePudding 0 Posted November 21, 2015 Coping with a lot of pressure but look like we could produce something on the break. Hazard looks up for this today unfortunately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ricardo 8,034 Posted November 21, 2015 Do well to see this through to half time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,358 Posted November 21, 2015 Harsh to not get a Pen there, looked like he was shoved off the ball to me. But ah well, can never expect anything from the officials against the big boys... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horse Renoir 1 Posted November 21, 2015 Mbokani is just awesome and giving Terry plenty to handle physically. He''s like a Kenwyne Jones that''s on form all the time.Also stone wall penalty, despite what the commentator says Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ginja 43 Posted November 21, 2015 One way traffic but we look solid-ish, not exactly easy to watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horse Renoir 1 Posted November 21, 2015 Prob a penalty for them as well. Surprised they didn''t get that given the circumstances. Evened out then Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horse Renoir 1 Posted November 21, 2015 What a bloody game as well!The PL isn''t always dismal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 8,034 Posted November 21, 2015 Good half, well done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,358 Posted November 21, 2015 I''d say we''ve adopted the defend and counter approach very well under AN, it''s been fine tuned and definitely looks better today where we''re attacking freely too. 0-0 is probably just about right Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syteanric 1 Posted November 21, 2015 good half city!!!!1st goal is crucial in this one I think. who ever gets it wins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 11,136 Posted November 21, 2015 Good first half. Chelsea proving they''re far better than their position says. Holding on a bit for parts. Ruddy has been excellent. Couple of penalty decisions that could have gone either way.Moment of the match. Howson''s inch perfect tackle on Will I Am. Oo er..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeattleCanary 0 Posted November 21, 2015 Great game! I though Bass was going to score. Great block from Terry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrs miggins 0 Posted November 21, 2015 Chelsea have been good offensively, missing some sitters; Ruddy has also been great.Redmond in the hole was a good decision as he''s been our bright spark going forward, but he has been non existent in holding his shape from what I''ve seen.I know its hard but again, we''ve got to be more confident with the ball. When we''ve played with confidence we''ve looked very good.Brady and Ruddy my men of the match so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
